I tend to be one of those strange people with odd questions and seemingly pointless thoughts. Just for entertainment, and perhaps to offer comfort, encouragement and a bit of a challenge, I thought I would begin typing out my random ramblings.
I am a top-notch perfectionist who plans to type directly into the "Posting Square" instead of pre-typing my thoughts and crafting just the right word/phrase to get my point across (gasp). If you do not understand what I just typed, most likely you are (lucky for you) not a type-A personality who has to make everything just right all the time. I hope my driven need to perfection will not be the demise for this blog. Time will tell.
Currently I am on Christmas break which in turn lends me a tad bit of (hark!) free time! When life picks up again in six days I will discover the longevity of this adventure.
Why Blog? A friend of mine recently challenged me to blog about my thoughts, questions and experiences. While I am 80% nervous of being so transparent with the world, the other 20% of me thinks there may be a possibility that my sharing may help or encourage someone else.
Is there a goal? My goal is to be able to express myself without the classification of male or female, rich or poor, white or black. A person's ability to prejudge me is lessened in this "blog" capacity and perhaps even the playing fields leveled out a little. Obviously many people reading know me and most likely already have me in a box of their own. A place to ramble out of the confines of the box the world puts me into is my goal in my blog. If I offend you...sorry. If you think I'm talking about you- probably not. If you don't agree with me...great! Conversation and dialogue are key to growth! I do not at all assume to have or know all the answers and I would love to converse with others about topics dear to my heart.
So here I go to share my thoughts! Enjoy and reply back with questions or comments anytime!
I am so excited to read your posts Connie!

ReplyDeleteOk. Can't wait ! I was just thinking about your gardening blog yesterday and wondering if you were still writing it. Are you?
ReplyDeleteCori- Thanks for your inspiration. I read your Christmas Blog last night and thought, "I'm just going to do it!" :)
ReplyDeleteKaren- Yeah, I am going to attempt to be utterly crazy and work on two blogs at the same time. I told Bret I need an ipad or something fancy I can use during my three hours of car-time every afternoon picking up kids! That would make life much more productive!
Cool, Connie!! You have a lot of great thoughts inside you!! I'm glad you have a little "free time" right now; enjoy it!! Hope you and the kids are sleeping in a little too!! Write on, Friend!!
